Eight Hours a Day.

Textile Record.
In his recent very sensible address
to workingmen in Boston, Edward
Atkinson said, respecting the propos-
ed eight hour system: eff you cut
down the work in factories, in work
shops, and in the building trades to
eight hours, you cut down the pro-
duct. Then there will befewer goods,
fewer stores, fewer tools, fewer houses,
and that means a higher price and
higher rent" This is the doctrine
that has been steadfastly preached in
our columns for years past. The pro
position to try to make men richer by
reducing the amount of wealth Great
ed, is as stupid as would be a scheme
for charging a water power by cut
ting down the mill dam.

In some women the hOme-making
instinct is entirely absent, while 9TH
ers can make a log cabin homo in
the highest sense of the word. A
young man who once saw a lady
preeminent for her learning and gent
us was questioned as to his impress

with her knowledge; her broad liberal
views and her philanthropy opened
a new world to me. Yet the most

the greasy carpet, and theashes strewn
halfway across the floor" Carlyle,
who had been usedto coarse surround
ings in his early home, was deeply
impressed by the refinement, the
pretty "bits of plenishing," the gen.
tlehood, in the home of the woman
he afterward married and the most
pathetic part of his Wife's history is
her heroic effort to give the dainty
charm to the rough dwelling in which
he placed her. "Let me see your
home and l will tell you what you

his countrywOmen. Our American

Second Hand Corks.

These corks, says a correspondent
of the Analyst, after lying for weeks
around in bar rooms, covered with
bad smelling and fermenting vegeta-
tons, are sold to dealers who subject
them to a kind of bleaching process,
run them through a smoothing ma
chine, and sell them to bottlers, weiss
beer brewers and others, for use
again. A cork may be never so well
cleaned, but the internal assures in
it always retain some of the vegeta,
lions referred to, and communicate
its ravaging properties to the liquids
they are used to preserve. Such uses
should be prohibited.

Truthful Talk.

After you get upon your ear and
make up your mind to "stop your
paper to make the editor feel humil-
lated" just poke your finger in wa
ter and then pull it out and look for
the hole. Then you will know how
sadly you are missed. The man who
thinks a paper cannot survive with
out his support ought to go off and
stay awhile. When he comes back
he will find. that half his friends
didn't know he was gone. The other
half didn't care a cent and the world
at large hadn't kept any account of
his movements whatever. You will
probably find some things in your
home paper you cannot endorse.
Even the Bible is rather plain and
hits some hard licks. If you were to
get mad and burn your Bible the
hundreds of presses would still go on
printing them, and if you were to
stop your paper and call the editor
all sorts of ugly names, the paper
would still be published. And what
is more you would sneak around and
borrow a copy of it regularly from
your own neighbor. 1t is much bet
ter to keep your vest pulled down
and your subscription paid up.-EX.

A Bald Mans Invention.

st. Louis Republican.
| have only known of one instance
where badness proved remunerative.
A friend of mine who had a shining
pate fell into the habit Of watching
the actions of his tormentors-the
flies. He noticed that a fly always
walks upward. Put a fly on a WIN
dow and up he goes toward the top
he can't be made to walk downward.
So my friend hit upon an idea. Why
not use that habit against them =?
Forthwith he made a window screen
divided in half. The upper half
Tapped over the lower, with an inch
0 fspace between. Well, as soon as a
fly would light on the screen it would
proceed to travel upward and would
thus walk straight outdoors. On
reaching the top of the lower half he
would be outside. Not being able to
walk down he had no way to return
to the room. BY this means a room
can be quickly cleared of flies, which
always seek the light. My friend has
got out a patent, and proposes to be.
gin a systematic war against the
household pest.
